Cowslip Sunday is organised by Lambley Arts Festival, a volunteer organisation consisting of people from in and around the village. Many of the events, such as the procession, the Lambley Jack play, and the Arts & Crafts Fair, are free to attend – but they are not free to create. In the current economic climate, sources of financial support for arts organisations like ours are increasingly hard to find, and so we are offering sponsorship opportunities to local businesses and individuals.

We are grateful for the financial support we have received from Lambley Parish Council and Councillor Mark Spencer MP.

Chief among the sponsorship opportunities for Cowslip Sunday 2012 is the Cowslip Sunday Programme, a full-colour souvenir brochure being produced for the event. This will include details of the whole Cowslip Weekend, along with some background to the festival, the characters, the players, and of course the cowslips.

Sponsors are offered advertising space in the programme, allowing their support for this community arts project to be made known to the community, and providing a valuable opportunity to promote their business. A media pack is in preparation; in the meantime interested parties can contact the programme editor Russ Swan editor@dumbles.co.uk
